Work Continues -- New Pieces

I am exploring printmaking and enjoying it. There are many different types of printmaking from engraving to drypoint to monotypes. As a painter, I am enjoying monotypes. It is spontaneous and you can use a wide variety of colors to get a beautiful painterly look.

My exploration of my archival pigment prints continues. There are several pieces that I have worked on that focus on human emotion as seen through a close-up of the face. Selecting the right archival paper to enhance the work enhances the final piece. One of these pieces is in an upcoming exhibit.
